On to something I did:
Story first:
In art class back in school we had to do something on the topic "vessels", and I decided to do some collage.
about 1 year after I finished school I got a call from my art teacher, asking me to use my collage work for some kind of exhibition. At first I wasn't even aware what "collage work" he was talking about, I left it at school and totally forgot about it. Especially because I never really saw its appeal. I didn't care at all, and so I said, allright (do whatever you want to do with it - I thought to myself). And then he sent me pictures of them, hanging on some wall of the exhibition:
the twist of the story:
One week later he called me again, and asked me whether he could have them, and when I was already about to say something like: whatever! just keep them already, he offered my
250 Euro!
That was 4 years ago, and to this day I can't believe I earned money, by glueing paper on some cardboard..
You must probably hate me for that now.
